So contributions to OpenJDK have to be hand-written, while internally, Oracle uses AI generated code... I guess the logic is that employees who use AI generated code (theoretically…

I think Meta might have made a mistake by not offering a free tier like Google did when they release Gemini CLI back in the day, or even how OpenAI lets you use Codex (or whatever …

It's a level of badly written that makes me think it could be a human, or it might just be an LLM that writes differently from a typical ChatGPT article. It is slop though, either …

Considering the article starts with "Cooking a steak requires almost no skill. Put it in a hot pan" , I think I see the root of his problem. Pan searing a steak only makes sense in…

DeepSeek was such a workhorse... I've had some pretty decent results with Hy3 and Nemotron too, but they're not the same. I'll probably have to switch to them (or find other altern…

Huh, this is actually really interesting (and the analysis for some of the sites answers some questions I'd randomly think about sometimes)

There's two threads now, apparently https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49066591 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49068029

K3 releasing as open source right at the same time that people are criticizing Opus for questionable performance (there's even a thread on HN about Opus 5's problems)... this is su…

normal person: "I like to yap." Sir Baroquesly Yappington, Esq., an intellectual: writes a whole article about it

Take a vacation, and after a few days, think about what your mind naturally drifts to when there's nothing that you have to do in particular, and no special obligation. Maybe that …

Nvidia benefits no matter what because their hardware is being used. Microsoft and Meta benefit by making sure that the gap between "Anthropic/OpenAI" and "everyone else" doesn't w…

The charging situation largely depends on where you live, as I see electric chargers all over the place (mostly shopping areas, but also at hospitals) and I don't even live in a bi…

I unironically hope Haiku gets an update considering it came out in October of last year and it seems like Anthropic just kind of forgot about it.

Interesting, but it seems like this really only affects consumers, since commercial vehicles will still use diesel. And the fact that they're almost certainly going to get all thei…

Same here. Long before ChatGPT existed, I always associated em dashes with pretentious writers who chose style over substance, mostly as their writing had no real substance. That A…

5.6 Sol (max) being cheaper than all of these is wild, considering how good the output is too

It certainly looks cool (and I'm partial to the red one) but I do have to wonder how easy this would be to live with long term? Because I feel like it would be cool for a few weeks…

It looks great, and those coding benchmarks are impressive... now if only it didn't come out just days after I let my Claude subscription expire :')

Every time there's any news or rumors about a new Gemini model, I cross my fingers and hope that it'll be the one that finally catches up to other big AI coding models. It hasn't h…

That's definitely a cool and unique concept... nice

I also like the more browsers have built-in adblock, but so far I've never seen any of them copy uBlock Origin's "element picker" (the little eyedropper tool) feature... it's good …

I think we have a sort-of-similar AI setup, except I use HTML files rather than markdown, and this is because I'm on macOS and it's easier to use "quick look" on HTML files than ma…

TL;DR version: I made a macOS journaling app that use Foundation Models to analyze entries for mood + written themes, and also has voice transcription, because I couldn't find any …

Didn't he get his way in the end? Java becoming the programming language of choice for Android happened when he was CEO.
